The Devil's Advocate
Call me Dad
They beat the teams in front of them.nikkas get hurt every year...it happens. Bosh missed a big chunk of the playoffs last year and Wade was up and down due to his own injuries but they got the job done. There was nothing easy about last year for Bron. The nikka is still doing the same shyt that he was doing in Cleveland. Only difference is the guys around him are actually capable of stepping up aka it's a championship caliber team.

As far as FA goes none of that shyt matter if management does make the right moves, doesn't have cap room, or if nikkas just plain do wanna play in that city. Cleveland was intererested in pretty much every name player out there while Bron was there and all they ever got to show for it was Larry Hughes, Mo Williams, and aShaq and a
Jamison (via trades). Yeah that is certainly comparable to the casts we have seen win championships throughout history.

we getting off track here... cause you replying to shyt that wasn't the original point
people said lebron was loved all over the league.. then he suddenly made this move and everyone hated him... my reply was that no, nobody loved this nikka but his own city... how you a lakers fan, but you loving lebron... so when he left, the cavs fans was burning the jersey and hating on him....
that lead to everyone hating him.. not cause he left.. but HOW he left and WHY he left.. the man came out his own mouth and said, now i don't have to... and it was either points or minutes... but he said, now i don't have to worry about scoring 30 a night.. something to that nature
nikka that sounds like you taking the easy way out... win a ring with the cavs = hard... win a ring with the heat = easy.. or easier
that was my point
so when me and you are talking.. what i'm saying is, any guy in the league could do this... kd has his team... but nikka come on... you think him, rose and melo couldn't do this exact move.. and that they would be 15 times better than the current okc.. or even the okc he had when he resigned???
you think MJ, Barkley and Olajuwon couldn't have done this... or any 3 dudes... there's only 2 big threes... boston who did it by trade.. and miami who did it by collusion...
all i'm saying is if the man went to any other losing team, or not with those other 2... nobody would have cared about it... it was the fact he left his hometown team to join up with 2 other all stars who planned this since 2008... nikkas felt tricked

He put on one of the great playoff performances ever last year. That's easy
Westbrook is comparable to Rose and Harden+Ibaka > Melo so of course he wasn't looking to leave. 
". I'm sure Mike was like
when Scottie came into his own.
nikkas didn't feel tricked they felt jealous and angry and like Lebron took control of his own destiny rather than allowing CLE, the media, or nikkas on their couch to control it.
at Harden not being top 20. Make whatever distinctions you want but Durant had talent, superstar talent, young superstar talent on his team there was no reason for him to consider leaving. Pretty sure if Mo Williams was his best teammate might have at least considered it.

and it's been three years...time to move on.
